Audacity

Designed by Laurent Giles in 1964, this little cruiser-racer was built in huge numbers using cold moulded ply. She had four berths and reasonable facilities under a low deckhead (headroom 1.58m, 5ft 2in). Some were fitted with an inboard engine. Neglected models are often beyond repair but good
ones make fun family dayboats or weekenders.
